A program co-sponsored by the Folger Institute and the Early Modern Manuscripts Online project
Thursday and Friday, 18-19 May 2017 (Application Deadline is 17 January 2017)
Early Modern Manuscripts Online (EMMO) is an IMLS-funded initiative at the Folger Shakespeare Library that promotes paleography primarily through online transcribing and encoding. EMMO will be the the subject of—and occasion for—a conference about the influence of digital scholarship on manuscript studies as well as the ways in which our understanding of the early modern humanities is changing as a result. In addition to introducing the searchable EMMO corpus of encoded transcriptions (many of them drawn from crowd-sourcing), conference sessions will address emerging scholarly trends, collaborative research projects, new methods of teaching paleography with digital tools, and genre-specific topics.
